We all know that if a sequence is in AP then Mean = Median.
My doubt is its opposite is also true?
That is, if in a pattern/sequence Mean = Median then that pattern/sequence is in AP?

No the opposite is not true. check the case::
S = {5 , 15,15, 25}. Mean = Median =15.
The data points in this set are not in AP as the difference between 2nd and 3rd data points is not equal to the difference between the other two consecutive numbers.

Thanks for the explanation Gaurav Bansal. Really appreciate it.
